User reviews

Handy to have on the boat

Boat ramp info is very handy, and having tide times and sanctuaries all in one app.

Rallimg

Navigation slow around app. Tide part appears not work all the time. Easier to use two other apps than this

Inappropriate Speed

Persistent fast requests re Location despite being declined ... but repetitive slow (on UFB) .. even inactive, Tide response ... and slow loading of app ... allegedly due to “first” time ... er, each time. Has worked better previously ... but seems buggy now.

Marinemate

Took several attempts before it loaded properly- display was jumbled. Finally got it.

Looks good

It would assist more if it showed speed limits in the shaded areas. E.g. Where river speed limit is 5km/hr. It doesn't show all ski lanes!
